Ideally, you would use a five-letter word with five distinct and commonly used letters on your first guess, like “ arise ” or “ roast .”

Similarly, you should probably avoid starting the daily puzzle with a word like “qapik,” “queue,” or “qajat” — all accepted by Wordle — because they use less common letters in English words and feature repeated vowels.

According to one analysis , the letter E appears most frequently in English-language words featured in a condensed version of the Oxford Dictionary, followed by A, R, I, O, T, N, and S. So starting words like “ ratio ,” “ irate ,” “ stain ,” or “ stare ” that include those commonly used letters are great options. There are more English-language words that start with S than any other letter, so a starting word that begins with S is also a good first guess. (If the words mentioned earlier in this paragraph come back all gray, maybe try “lurch” or “cloud” for another set of frequently used distinct letters.)

If you want a variety of vowels, the word “ ouija ” has all but E (and sometimes Y) and is a good starter word, even though J is one of the least frequently used letters in English words, according to the aforementioned analysis.

For those less interested in pure optimization, here’s how Wordle players at Polygon start the puzzle each day.

FRAME, GRAZE, WINDY, PAINT, GOURD, SWING, VAPES

I aim for a mix of common and uncommon letters in my first guess(es). The more common letters are to see if I can nail down the shape of a word, with those less common ones for process of elimination — just trying to avoid the heartbreak of having four of the five letters set, and a last letter that could be a number of different options. That said, I wouldn’t call myself a big strategy person. It’s more fun, in my opinion, to throw random ideas in there and see if you happen to get some leads. — Nicole Clark

AUDIO, FARTS

The first is to knock out four vowels in one go and the second is because how funny would it be to get that on the first try? Disclaimer: I definitely got that idea from someone on Twitter, but it’s too good. —Petrana Radulovic

ADIEU, OUIJA

I’ve fallen off the Wordle bandwagon over the past week, but my go-to strategy is to start with a five-letter word with as many vowels as possible so as to figure out the general composition of the day’s word. After that, it’s just blind guessing. —Toussaint Egan

READY, PEARS, CHIEF, TOUCH

Big fan of never playing the same word twice. Prefer the chaos. Peace is knowing the goal of Wordle is not to get the correct word in the fewest turns, but to get the job done in the space provided. Wordle is life. That said, if I’ve decided to Wordle before coffee, I’ll default to one of these words that seem to check those Wheel of Fortune “top letter” boxes. — Matt Patches

I stole this off someone on Twitter. It has the two most important vowels, and arguably the two most important consonants to identify or rule out. It rarely draws a blank and usually gives you a decent lead on the second line. It appeals to the puzzle-solving, min-maxing side of my brain. But I’m not sure I like playing Wordle this way. It’s strategic but it has no flair; it’s almost cheap. And I miss the thrill of trying to intuit something with a first guess out of the blue. — Oli Welsh

ROAST, TEARS, MEATS, OUIJA, PIZZA

Like several people at Polygon, I revel in the uncertainty of a new word each day. But, I’m also human, which means I do have fallback words for those mornings after I scored in five or six tries the previous day. Also, I stole “roast” from Nicole Carpenter and “ouija” from Toussaint. I’m like a starting-word Robin Hood, if Robin Hood just kept everything he stole, and were nothing like me at all. —Mike Mahardy

POETS, EARLY, STEAM, BOILS, SPOUT, COUNT, WOUND, STEAK

I’m in the same boat as other people here (hey, “boats” isn’t a bad one) — I like the challenge of coming up with a new starter word every day so Wordle doesn’t start to seem like a rote, mechanical task. The point (ooh, “point” is pretty good too) is always to hit at least two vowels and a couple of the more common consonants without repeating any letters. But I prefer the feeling of coming up with a new starting point every day and seeing what lands over trying to whittle down the skeleton key that might fit every lock. —Tasha Robinson

Wordle has been a balm during a tough time in my life, a fun daily thought exercise where I can attempt to clear my mind and focus on an energizing challenge for a few minutes. (Or, uh, many minutes.) As such, I’ve tried to just take each day’s puzzle as it comes and not think too much about the opening gambit. In other words, I come up with a new starter word every day — whatever floats to the top of my brain at that particular moment.

I mean, sure, you want to follow the basic rules of Wheel of Fortune and Scrabble with respect to letter frequency — i.e., it probably doesn’t make sense to start with a word that has J or Z in it — and it’s a good idea to get at least two vowels in there. But that’s about as deep as I go into Wordle strategy. Any deeper, and it starts to feel like I’m calculating probabilities rather than thinking about the wondrous variety of the English language. And nobody prefers math games to word games. —Samit Sarkar

You can do that with our word finder too. Simply enter a question mark (?) or a space to indicate a wildcard. You can include up to three of these in a word search. 

If you enter the letters “ADI?Y” into the search bar, you’ll find words like “daily,” “diary,” and “diyas.” It's a great way to get some Wordle help when you need it too.

With Words With Friends®, you get 35 bonus points when you use all 7 of your letter tiles. In the case of Scrabble® and Scrabble® GO, the bingo bonus scores you a whopping 50 extra points.

Even if you know what the highest scoring word in Words With Friends® is, you’re probably never going to play it. What’s more important is being versatile and taking advantage of opportunities, like cashing in on bonus squares and bingo bonuses. One word you’ll want to keep in mind for this reason is “retains.”

For starters, those seven letters can be rearranged to form several 7-letter words, including:

Toss in a single wildcard, and now you’ve got access to dozens of 8-letter words , ripe for that bingo bonus across so many possible in-game scenarios. Some examples include:

You’ve got plenty of chances to score with a well-placed hook in Scrabble® or Words With Friends® . Reach out to a double letter or triple word score! Recognizing chances to play high scoring words containing certain letters is the key to victory.

Daily Jumble Solving Tips

  • Identify unique letters: Begin by scanning the jumbled letters for any unique characters, such as Q, X, or Z, which might help narrow down possible words.
  • Look for common letter patterns: Search for familiar letter combinations, such as “ing,” “ed,” “tion,” or “est,” as these can often help you identify parts of the word.
  • Rearrange letters: Physically rearrange the jumbled letters using paper or an online tool. This can help you visualize potential words more easily.
  • Form smaller words: Try to form smaller words using subsets of the given letters. This may help you recognize letter patterns that contribute to the final solution.
  • Use consonant and vowel patterns: Consider the usual arrangements of consonants and vowels in words. For example, consonants often surround vowels, and certain consonants tend to appear together (e.g., “th,” “ch,” “sh”).
  • Work on one word at a time: If the jumble consists of multiple words, focus on solving one word at a time. Solving one word may provide context clues for the others.
  • Apply context clues: If the jumble is part of a puzzle with a theme or accompanying image, use these context clues to guide your guesses.
  • Check word lengths: Take note of the length of the jumbled word. This can help eliminate possibilities and narrow down your search.
  • Eliminate incorrect combinations: As you try different letter arrangements, eliminate the combinations that do not form valid words or do not fit the context.
  • Take breaks: If you feel stuck, take a short break and come back to the jumble with fresh eyes. This may help you see new patterns or possibilities.

White House counsel asked special counsel to revise classified documents report's descriptions of Biden's "poor memory"

By Kathryn Watson, Jordan Freiman

Updated on: February 8, 2024 / 8:39 PM EST / CBS News

The White House counsel's office asked special counsel Robert Hur to revise some of the language in his  report on his investigation into President Biden's handling of classified documents, which highlighted that the president's memory "appeared to have significant limitations," leading Hur's team to believe a jury might see Mr. Biden as a "well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory." 

The White House counsel's office was so opposed to the language the special counsel used, the president's attorneys declared the report's descriptions of the president's memory "inflammatory," and asked Hur to "revisit" and "revise" the report's language. 

Hur found Mr. Biden's handling of classified documents from his time as vice president did not warrant criminal charges. But the report's citations and characterizations of the 81-year-old president's memory as he runs for a second term could be politically damaging. 

Hur found the president struggled to remember events in 2017 when he recorded conversations with ghostwriter Mark Zwonitzer, but in his more recent interview with Hur's office, "Mr. Biden's memory was worse."

"He did not remember when he was vice president, forgetting on the first day of the interview when his term ended ('if it was 2013 — when did I stop being Vice President?'), and forgetting on the second day of the interview when his term began ('in 2009, am I still Vice President?')," the report reads. "He did not remember, even within several years, when his son Beau died. And his memory appeared hazy when describing the Afghanistan debate that was once so important to him. Among other things, he mistakenly said he 'had a real difference' of opinion with General Karl Eikenberry, when, in fact, Eikenberry was an ally whom Mr. Biden cited approvingly in his Thanksgiving memo to President Obama."

Mr. Biden addressed the report's assertions about his memory during a news conference later on Thursday, and took particular issue with the claim he could not remember when his son died.

"How in the hell dare he raise that," Mr. Biden said while speaking from the White House. "Frankly, when I was asked the question, I thought to myself it wasn't any of their damn business."

Mr. Biden noted he has worn a rosary on his wrist every day since his son died, although he appeared to struggle to complete the name of the church from which the rosary came. The president also said his family holds a memorial for Beau Biden every year.

"I don't need anyone to remind me when he passed away," Mr. Biden said. 

"The simple truth is, I sat for a five-hour interview over two days of events going back 40 years. At the same time, I was managing an international crisis," Mr. Biden said, referencing Hamas' Oct. 7 attack on Israel, which had occurred one day before the first day of his interview with the special counsel.

Mr. Biden said the special counsel's job was to decide whether to bring charges, and that any other "extraneous commentary" had "no place in this report." 

"The bottom line is the matter is now closed, and we can continue what I've always focused on: My job of being president of the United States of America," Mr. Biden said. 

Speaking with a reporter who raised the issue of Hur's assertion that a jury would find the president to be a "well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory," Mr. Biden responded, "I'm well-meaning and I'm an elderly man and I know what the hell I'm doing. I've been president and I put this country back on its feet. I don't need his recommendation."

Mr. Biden said his memory is "fine," and "has not gotten worse" over the course of his presidency.

Hur's report said the Justice Department took the president's memory into account as it considered how a potential prosecution could play out.  

"We have also considered that, at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory," the report reads. "Based on our direct interaction with and observation of him, he is someone for whom many jurors will want to identify reasonable doubt. It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him — by then a former president well into his eighties — of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness." 

Richard Sauber, special counsel to the president in the White House counsel's office, and Bob Bauer, personal counsel to Mr. Biden, took issue with the special counsel's characterizations of the president's memory. 

"Not only do you treat the president differently from other witnesses when discussing his limited recall of certain years-ago events, but you also do so on occasions in prejudicial and inflammatory terms," they wrote in a Feb. 5 letter on White House letterhead. 

Sauber and Bauer took issue with the report referencing Mr. Biden's memory "on at least nine occasions," a number they called "gratuitous."

"It is one thing to observe President Biden's memory as being 'significantly limited' on certain subjects. It is quite another to use the more sweeping and highly prejudicial language employed later in the report," they wrote. "This language is not supported by the facts, nor is it appropriately used by a federal prosecutor in this context. We request that you revisit your descriptions of President Biden's memory and revise them so that they are stated in a manner that is within the bounds of your expertise and remit." 

Hur's report details how Mr. Biden's personal attorneys found documents with classified markings, and how federal investigators found more records. Between January and June 2023, FBI agents searched over 300 boxes of material from Mr. Biden's time as a U.S. senator. "Within those boxes, agents found documents with potential classification markings, dating from 1977 to 1991, during Mr. Biden's service in the Senate," the report said. 

Republicans quickly honed in on the report's descriptions of the president's memory. Mr. Biden would be 82 at the start of a second term should he win the 2024 presidential election, and 86 at the end of that term. Former President Donald Trump, the Republican frontrunner, would be 78 upon taking office if he were to prevail in 2024.

"Among the most disturbing parts of this report is the special counsel's justification for not recommending charges: namely that the president's memory had such 'significant limitations' that he could not convince a jury that the president held a 'mental state of willfulness' that a serious felony requires," members of House Republican leadership wrote in a joint statement. "A man too incapable of being held accountable for mishandling classified information is certainly unfit for the Oval Office."
